My play list of LOVE again on my MP3 device usually consists of only 14 tracks as I always exclude Melody. Apparently I dislike the refrain which, for the most part, sounds vastly tedious and long drawn-out to me.

Back then, I just wanted to make sure nothing would diminish the glorious joy I felt with that superb album. May grant it a second opportunity to amaze me, now that I read this thread, though.

haha same here, I was stanning for the song. I thought it was the best on the album while everyone else was going crazy for Missing, wich made me sad & alone that people dissliked it so much lol. I still really really adore it! surprisingly mainly for her vocals. it's totally my fave on the album. And it deffinitelly gave me the old Ayu feeling that i fell in love with years ago. ♥ It deserves to be sung live, i think it would make a really great closing song

Ha, I remember totally ignoring it when LOVE came out. At first listen I found it so random! However when LOVE again came out I started liking it, it's truly beautiful ^^

Melody sounds like a updated version of TO BE with a mix of Moments vibe, so of course I'm a fan. It has always been a favorite. Ever since I first heard it from the single. It's simple yet beautiful♥

I loved melody the most out of all of the songs on LOVE and it's definitely one of my favorites on LOVE again. The video is amazing, too.

I actually agree with this, it's not a track i listen to very often but i've come to really appreciate it and there is something old-school ayu about it
I think the problem with it is the same as with my My Story, it's put on an album with so many mellow, samey ballads that it just kinda drowns in there. You don't get to fully appreciate it cause it doesn't get to stand out at all.

LOVE Again was truly a flawed album, maybe i like Melody more cause i don't listen to the album at all anymore, i only listen to the singles now.

I'm late on this, but melody is my most played ayu song.
I think it's because it's easy listening/smooth/sweet all in one.

I love Melody. It is the only song I like from the Love/Again/Love Again era. Other tracks are just blah
